Half Marathon Training Schedule

Hey Y'all, with it being running season, with so many races coming up in all parts of the country I thought I would share a half marathon schedule I made for a family member.

I would recommend this for the beginner but
not a complete “non exerciser".

This schedule has 4 days of running and 1-2 days off and 1-2 days of cross training.

I have seen schedules that only include 3 days of running and to me that does not seem like enough cardiovascular and sport specific training to enjoy the race and decrease chances of injury, so I like at least 4 days of running. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, enjoy!

*check with your doctor to make sure you are healthy enough to run a half marathon prior to starting
